Re: chromium leaving zombies

As far as I know, the Chromium package provided through pacman is compiled from now on (or until NVIDIA cleans it's mess) without tcmalloc. I haven't seen any zombie processes since then so I encourage you all to update

Re: chromium leaving zombies

It seems as though someone changed the chromium package at chromium 26.0.1410.43-3

+ -Dlinux_use_tcmalloc=0 \

so perhaps this problem has gone away. Unfortunately I switched to using nouveau in the mean time. I noticed some minor issues like not being able to show the gpu temperature, but nothing too strange. I do see occasional lock ups in my time wasting with swell foop. Not sure whether I'll switch back.
